Photonic crystal fiber-based immunosensor for high-performance detection of alpha fetoprotein.

Biosensors & bioelectronics
We have developed a sensitive photonic crystal fiber (PCF)-based immunosensor for detection of alpha fetoprotein (AFP). The unique PCF possesses a morphology characterized by numerous pore structures and a large surface area-to-volume ratio, which ca...

A novel microchip electrophoresis-based chemiluminescence immunoassay for the detection of alpha-fetoprotein in human serum.

Talanta
A sensitive immunoassay method based on microchip electrophoresis chemiluminescence (MCE-CL) detection technology was developed for the detection of tumor marker alpha-fetoprotein (AFP). This method adopts the non-competitive immunoassay mode, and wa...

Intrahepatic bile duct adenoma in a patient with chronic hepatitis B accompanied by elevation of alpha-fetoprotein.

Clinical and molecular hepatology
A 51-year-old male patient with chronic hepatitis B was referred to our hospital due to a 1-cm liver nodule on ultrasonography. Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) was slightly elevated. The nodule showed prolonged enhancement on dynamic liver magnetic resonance...

Influence of vascular endothelial growth factor and alpha-fetoprotein on hepatocellular carcinoma.

Genetics and molecular research : GMR
We evaluated the influence of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) -C936T polymorphism on prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), cirrhosis, and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Serum VEGF and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels were deter...

Leveraging SEER data through machine learning to predict distant lymph node metastasis and prognosticate outcomes in hepatocellular carcinoma patients.

The journal of gene medicine
OBJECTIVES: This study aims to develop and validate machine learning-based diagnostic and prognostic models to predict the risk of distant lymph node metastases (DLNM) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and to evaluate the prognosis for ...

[A Case of Juvenile AFP-Producing Gastric Cancer with Virchow Lymph Node Metastasis Achieved Long-Term Survival with Multimodal Therapy].

Gan to kagaku ryoho. Cancer & chemotherapy
A 25-year-old male received palliative total gastrectomy plus D1 dissection plus Roux-en-Y reconstruction for hemorrhagic gastric cancer with left Virchow lymph node metastasis in 2013. The final diagnosis was Type 2, pT4a(se), pap>tub2 >hepatoid ade...

DeepAFP: An effective computational framework for identifying antifungal peptides based on deep learning.

Protein science : a publication of the Protein Society
Fungal infections have become a significant global health issue, affecting millions worldwide. Antifungal peptides (AFPs) have emerged as a promising alternative to conventional antifungal drugs due to their low toxicity and low propensity for induci...

[A Surgical Case of AFP-Producing Gastric Cancer Discovered by Rupture of Liver Metastatic Lesion].

Gan to kagaku ryoho. Cancer & chemotherapy
A 57-year-old man visited our hospital with right hypochondralgia. Abdominal contrast CT showed a 10 cm sized mass in S6-7of the liver and abdominal hemorrhage areas. The tumor showed extrahepatic growth. Blood a-fetoprotein(AFP)was high at 4,447.9ng...

[A Case of Alpha-Fetoprotein-Producing Gastric Cancer with Synchronous Liver Metastasis Achieving Recurrence-Free Survival for Five Years by Gastrectomy, Hepatectomy, and Adjuvant Chemotherapy].

Gan to kagaku ryoho. Cancer & chemotherapy
a-fetoprotein(AFP)-producing gastric cancer is relatively rare and tends to show a poor prognosis because of hepatic and lymph node metastasis. We experienced a case of AFP-producing gastric cancer with synchronous liver metastasis wherein the patien...

[A Case of a-Fetoprotein Producing Gastric Cancer with Lymph Node Recurrence after Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection].

Gan to kagaku ryoho. Cancer & chemotherapy
A 70-year-old man underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD)for 2 early-stage gastric cancers in 2009 and 2014, respectively. Both were pathologically diagnosed after curative resection. In 2015, we detected swollen lymph nodes in the lesser cur...
